Slash Releases New Facebook App

(Gibson) Slash's new Facebook app is the world's first fully integrated 360-degree video platform, broadcasting a fully interactive performance of the guitarist's single "Standing in the Sun."

Users can watch from different vantage points and choose between multiple synchronized camera views as well as being able to rotate and zoom in and out in real-time.

Mativision's partnership with Slash has already seen a similar app released for iPhone. Slash says: "I think the 360 application definitely takes the listener into the world of the musician so that you can actually be in the room where the artist is recording or in a live situation where you can be all around the stage and behind the stage and it just gives it a lot more depth and it really sort of puts you in the world of what the artist is doing." Watch the Slash interview about the app.
